About this stone
Arabescato looks like white stone that has been cracked into large angular pieces and knitted back together with grey. The pattern is busy and full of movement, so it works well on a feature wall, a vanity top or a table, and on floors where it hides dust and footprints.
It is a calcite marble, softer than granite, so polished surfaces can scratch and acids leave dull etch marks. The grey network hides small marks better than plain white marbles. Seal it, especially in bathrooms and kitchens. Because the pattern is strong, keep nearby tiles and cabinets simple, and lay out slabs before cutting so the veins flow across joints.
Care
Seal on installation and reseal as water stops beading. Clean with warm water and a neutral stone cleaner.
